Abstract

There is provided water removal apparatus (12) to enhance visibility from vehicles comprising a pressurised or compressed air supply (16) connected to an outlet means comprising at least one elongate tube (20) having a plurality of apertures (30) for emitting air and disposed substantially vertically relative to at least one viewing surface (22), such as a side-view mirror. The apertures (30) are angled between 10 to 30 degrees relative to the viewing surface (22) thereby in use to produce a laminar sheet of moving air contacting the viewing surface (22) to disperse water from the viewing surface. The laminar sheet is complete and uninterrupted, having no gaps. The elongate tube {20) is adapted to ensure each aperture (30) emits air at substantially the same pressure.
